Major Update Speculation XXVI: Much Ado About Nothing - Games

[QUOTE=Metaru;48207597]voicelines =! voice input[/QUOTE] That's even worse. Micspam would be really annoying with that.

[QUOTE=majan222;48206175]My fav machinima is still Ignis Souls: [video=youtube;eRARcZL-4XM]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRARcZL-4XM[/video] I have watched it before playing TF2. I thought that talking to those microphones, so that others can hear you in other places, can be done ingame too. I wish that was a thing at least in some custom map.[/QUOTE] Damn, that brings back memories!

It's interesting how they went out of their way to add asteroid content to Powerhouse while at the same time avoiding an update to the beta map. They must be close to content complete if they don't need any further feedback.

So is there an ETA on the comic? August? September? December 2018?

Hahaha I forgot about the comic. don't even care at this point, but man alive is that ever late

I think the end of August was the last ETA we were given?

End of August? Jesus Christ.

[QUOTE=MrCasual;48208590]End of August? Jesus Christ.[/QUOTE] Woah woah woah there, don't set your hopes that high! Earliest possible date is the beginning of October. The ETAs have never been right.

[QUOTE=MrCasual;48208478]So is there an ETA on the comic? August? September? December 2018?[/QUOTE] When it's done.

[QUOTE=ComodoreBluth;48209787]When it's done.[/QUOTE] I get what you're saying, but when it should've been out more than a year ago I'd say it's fair enough for people to be [b]a bit[/b] impatient.

Didn't the writer of the comic say he thought bi-monthy meant twice a year? Or did I imagine that?

[QUOTE=ComodoreBluth;48209787]When it's done.[/QUOTE] No. It's too goddamn late for "when it's done." It's a [I]comic![/I] It's not the most complicated thing in the world to make, and when it's your day job you get payed to do, there's no excuse.

I just stopped caring - it'll make the wait more bearable until it finally arrives.

[QUOTE=Trekintosh;48209953]No. It's too goddamn late for "when it's done." It's a [I]comic![/I] It's not the most complicated thing in the world to make, and when it's your day job you get payed to do, there's no excuse.[/QUOTE] Actually its a lot more complicated I think. There are re-writes, things that need to be re-drawn, plot points that may suddenly require attention, etc. That and this is something of a pet project to those involved. I'm not sure that this is something they were ordered to do. On top of that, there's that dota comic I keep hearing about that they're supposed to be working on too. Perhaps they're also working on comics for another tf2 update as well. I am also disappointed in the longer than expected wait times, but, I understand what it's like to do anything with an immense workload on your back. And, truth be told, I appreciate that they'd take time out of their busy day to make something cool for poor schlubs like us.

With this wait. The comic better be amazing. Or else it wasn't worth the wait.

[QUOTE=MissingGlitch;48210263]With this wait. The comic better be amazing. Or else it wasn't worth the wait.[/QUOTE] Last time we got some "extra-pages" for the 6 month wait, but they said nothing about what we will get for the 9-10 month wait we go trough right now. And does anybody else remember that comic panel?

But whatever, still positive, they will somehow (as always) end up amazing us. :v:

I hope soon they give us the chance to get Stat trackers on the 2fort and Craftsmann collection skins. There are skins in those collections that I just adore.

[QUOTE=SLBros.;48210668]wait, this wasn't a joke? I don't even know what to say at this point[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure that's a joke. At least I hope it was.

[QUOTE=Freeze;48204727]why would you be ashamed that someone is better than you usain bolt is better than me at running, doesn't mean i'm ashamed to run[/QUOTE] That's not such a good comparison... For one thing, the usain bolt would be you (training months for the race etc) and the guy who beats you at a race is like an old man who had like 5 minutes practice. [editline]15th July 2015[/editline] Or I guess you practice running for months and then usain bolts gets off his fat ass after years of watching tv and beats you out of the blue.

[QUOTE=ComodoreBluth;48210939]I'm pretty sure that's a joke. At least I hope it was.[/QUOTE]It was a joke. He gave the real reason for the delays (the comics team keep getting pulled into other Valve projects) shortly afterwards.

[QUOTE=GladoSC;48206137]If I'm not mistaken, some of these contracts are called "TF_ItemDynamic_Recipe_QuestObjectives" in game files so it probably says something like normal recipes: "This item has a set of inputs that, once fulfilled, will reward you with what's listed in its outputs." where inputs might be changed for quests. But yeah, might be wiser just to wait for someone to translate it to english, these are just my assumptions[/QUOTE] The text translates down to "Single use item" It's just a crate in different form.

I think I'm late but it seems that the 6th contract is up.

[QUOTE=Wircea;48211557]I think I'm late but it seems that the 6th contract is up.[/QUOTE] Contracts are every [B]Wednesday[/B] and [B]Saturday[/B] if im correct

[QUOTE=ysd64;48211973]Contracts are every [B]Wednesday[/B] and [B]Saturday[/B] if im correct[/QUOTE] My most recent contract popped up Monday night and doesn't seem to be in sync with my friends. It was also my 5th contract if I'm not mistaken

[QUOTE=ysd64;48211973]Contracts are every [B]Wednesday[/B] and [B]Saturday[/B] if im correct[/QUOTE] Yep, and just so we're clear Contracts come out [B]Wednesday[/B] and [B]Saturday[/B] when was that? [B]Wednesday[/B] and [B]Saturday[/B] tuesday right? [B]Wednesday[/B] and [B]Saturday[/B] maybe once a week? [B]Wednesday[/B] and [B]Saturday[/B] two every saturday then, right? [B]WEDNESDAY[/B] AND [B]SATURDAY[/B]
